Message from Mary Shumway State Director of CTE

CTE is making the difference in the lives of students throughout Utah and across the nation. We have talented, skilled, determined, and dedicated educators who are passionate about taking CTE into the next decade of the 21st century. CTE will provide you with the academic and technical skills you need to be college and career ready, and to compete in a global economy. By the year 2018, the economy will create 13.8 million brand-new jobs, and 33 million replacement jobs, nationwide. In Utah, 64,000 new jobs will be created by the year 2018, with replacement job openings accounting for equal shares of the total employment opportunities. CTE continues to make a huge impact in the lives of students.
